Chapter 612: The Spring Festival is approaching

"The lord's plan is very good, and then he can set up a general to protect the Huns on the grassland." Jia Xu said, protecting the Xiongnu generals, saying that it was to protect the Xiongnu departments, in fact, it was also to supervise the Huns and prevent the Huns from rebelling, but after all, this official position was appointed by the imperial court and had a great influence among the Huns.

"In the coming year, when attacking the Xianbei people, it is strictly forbidden for merchants to shoot iron, blades, and armor against the Xianbei people, and once discovered, they will be punished with death."

Jia Xu said that even if the Xianbei people have been in trouble and the state and Youzhou for many years, there are many businessmen who go to the tribes of the Xianbei people to trade for profits, the Han people's tea, cloth, ceramics are extremely popular in the grassland, and businessmen can get a large amount of profits from them, for the Xianbei people, a horse is nothing, especially some wealthy tribes, but war horses are in demand in the Central Plains, and slightly better war horses can be sold for about four thousand yuan in the Central Plains, of course, they returned to the Central Plains from Xianbei, passing through the rule of the Marquis of Jin, There are taxes to be paid, and even so, businessmen are eager to get it, and there is no greater profit than merging states.

With the support of wine mills and paper mills, merchants in Bingzhou have sprung up.

Bingzhou was the first to sell war horses to the princes, and there was a horse farm under Lu Bu's rule, and among the merchants who went to Xianbei, there was no lack of Lu Bu secretly instructed, as for the war horses obtained, after careful selection, they were in the hands of the princes, even so, the princes secretly bought not a few, and even the princes secretly sent merchants to Bingzhou to buy war horses.

"The news of the three Xianbei departments cannot be ignored, especially the central Xianbei, which is huge, and it is also the best to be able to provoke a war between the three Xianbei in secret." Lu Budao.

"Lord, there are Wuhuan people in Youzhou, and they have to be guarded against." Jia Xu said, the Wuhuan people helped the Bingzhou army to repel the Jizhou army, but the Wuhuan people are also ambitious, they also want more cities, and there is a dirty relationship between the Wuhuan people and the Xianbei people, and the Wuhuan people are also a force to be reckoned with.

"If the Wuhuan people dare to take the opportunity to make trouble, Benhou will make it difficult for them to enter the Han realm by half a step." Lu Bu snorted coldly, he was worried that he couldn't find a chance to clean up the Wuhuan people.

"Let Mi Zhu secretly collect more grain and grass, and the cattle and sheep on the grassland can also be purchased, learn from the Xianbei people, make city jerky, and use it as dry food for the cavalry." The matter of grain and grass has always been extremely important, the three armies have not moved, the grain and grass go first, there is no sufficient grain and grass guarantee, if you want to win in a battle, how easy it is to say, the speed of the cavalry is extremely fast, carrying the usual dry food, it is not easy to move, and carrying the dried meat, but it can alleviate this problem to a certain extent, as for the problem of grain and grass after the cavalry arrived in Xianbei, it is naturally borne by the Xianbei people.

"Whoa." Jia Xu arched his hand, Bingzhou is not short of money, Lu Bu got Zhang Rang's wealth, so that Bingzhou has more spare power, the biggest profit is not the war horse, but Jin wine, especially after the influx of refugees into Bingzhou, the price of Jin wine has increased a lot, brewing Jin wine needs food, affected by the locust plague, the grain in the Central Plains has decreased sharply, and it is reasonable to increase the price of wine.

As for the businessmen who took the opportunity to raise the price of rice and grain in the states and counties, Mi Zhu knew that once the states were relieved from the refugees, the unlucky ones must be those businessmen, and the Jinyang Chamber of Commerce had a great say among the merchants.

Getting closer and closer to the end of the year, Lu Bu also took a break from his busyness, except for going to the army to check the training of soldiers and going to the state pastoral mansion to deal with some necessary affairs, the rest of the time was spent accompanying his family, especially Cai Yan and Diao Chan, after they became pregnant, they needed him to be by their side even more.

What excites Lu Bu the most is Gu Yong's refuge, a talent like Gu Yong, once he chooses to take refuge in the state, he will not easily change his camp, which is also the integrity of the literati, even if Gu Yong's family is not in the state at present.

This is also the first year since Lu Bu came to the Han Dynasty, the first year of peace of mind, these days, Lu Bu is also busy in the craftsman's workshop, the craftsman workshop in Baibo Valley has basically been built, and more things have been transported to Baibo Valley, this is also to avoid the princes' fine work to a greater extent, compared to Jinyang, Baibo Valley is more suitable to become a base for building blade equipment, and the princes' fine work wants to be mixed in, or the craftsmen in the craftsman's workshop, want to take the secret out, it is very difficult, In the Jinyang craftsman workshop, some basic things are still preserved.

Due to the existence of artisan workshops, there are fewer and fewer blacksmith shops in the city, and some craftsmen will choose artisan workshops, and most of the farming tools needed by the people are still made by artisan workshops.

"Husband, where are we going?" Mi Zhen and Qiao Shuang were quite excited to change into ordinary clothes, for a year, Lu Bu was mostly busy and rarely had time to accompany them.

"It's almost the Spring Festival, so I'll take you to the market to buy some things." Lu Bu said with a smile.

The happiest is Lu Lingqi, although Yan Lan has always taught her to be steady, but in her heart, Lu Lingqi is still more playful, and every time she is with Lu Bu, it is also when Lu Lingqi is happy, even if it is some excessive requirements in the eyes of her mother, Lu Bu will tolerate her, in the face of such a situation, Yan Lan is also very helpless, but every time she sees Lu Bu and Lu Lingqi happy, she can only shake her head secretly.

Lu Lingqi has reached the age of marriage, that is, the age of marriage, with Lu Bu's identity, what kind of husband can't be picked, but Lu Bu doesn't seem to take this matter to heart, even if Yan Lan urges him, he has been shirking it, and he is not in a hurry about Lu Lingqi's marriage.

"Father, are you going to make meat skewers?" Lu Lingqi licked her lips, her favorite was the meat skewers made by Lu Bu.

Lu Bu shook his head slightly, "Lingqi will know when the time comes." ”

The diet of the Han Dynasty was not a little worse than that of the future world, and the meals were extremely simple, at least Lu Bu had not seen chili peppers until now.

Approaching the Spring Festival, the market also seems to be very lively, the looks of the people in the past are also full of joy, since Lu Bu took charge of the state, there is no major war in the state, in the troubled times, it is extremely difficult to have such peace.

The busy scene in the bazaar, giving people the feeling that in the peaceful and prosperous times, the merchants who come and go, but also add a different kind of busyness to the lively Jinyang, the merchants come and go to Jinyang, but also need a lot of manpower, and this also creates an opportunity for the people of Jinyang, in Bingzhou, just gathered in the people around Jinyang reached 400,000 people, this is such a huge population, even compared with the rich city of the Central Plains, the most important thing is that Jinyang shows a strong strength.

The Spring Festival is approaching, and the brothers and sisters who are busy outside are also rushing home, so pay attention to safety on the road!
